Can't find jetson-io.py

[user19355]

Hi, I’m trying to configure my gpio pins on my Jetson Nano. It’s installed with JetPack 4.6.1, L4T version: 32.7.1.
However when I try to run ‘sudo /opt/nvidia/jetson-io/jetson-io.py’, I get an ‘sudo: /opt/nvidia/jetson-io/jetson-io.py: command not found’ error. I’ve tried going into the directory and I can’t find the jetson-io.py file either.

Can anyone tell me how I can fix this issue?

How about flashing JetOS again?

[user19355]

Does that involve reflashing the Jetson Nano using the boot loader? I’d rather not have to clean install my Jetson Nano since it has a lot of libraries already installed that were quite a pain to get working.

Oh No!

1. copy jetson-io directory from a normal Jetson Nano and test it
2. backup installed library info, dpkg or pip3

dpkg --get-selections
pip3 freeze

3, sth else?

[user19355]

Do you know what could’ve caused this issue? Maybe a bad install of JetPack 4.6.1?

[MtHiker]

I agree, sth wrong during installation.
On my desk, I have a Jetson Nano devkit like you, definately JP4.6.1.
It was initialized through the SDKManager, and has jetson-io as expected.

[user19355]

So maybe I can try reinstalling JP4.6.1 using Nvidia SDK Manager? I believe I installed JP4.6.1 originally on my jetson nano using the Package Management Tool installing the Debian packages.

If you have a Nano devkit, find an another SD card for fresh installation.

[user19355]

And just copy/save the jetson-io directory from the fresh installed SD card onto my older SD card with all my libraries installed and seeing if running the command again works?

[MtHiker]

To test!
Cause I did not try that

[user19355]

Thanks! This worked for me.

[MtHiker]

Good!
